Of course I have lazy days. Of course, there are "PIZZA" nights. Of course there are days I don't touch a piece of Laundry. But, I have NOT been doing any of it... I've been so busy, and because of my LOVE for parties, hosting, & getting creative I have neglected all of it, and I have neglected the ONE person that deserves to be doted over. As much as I do for him, this man does twice the work for me. You don't even have a clue. He wines & dines me all the time. He's been SO wonderful. Seriously, for the month of September Aaron has kept up with the Laundry [because I've let it GOOOOOO] I have been cooking... Okay some, but I have a REAL big issue with cleaning my kitchen and NOT leaving pots or pan in the sink, Well... I have been. I've been letting them soak in hot water with soap just so I can relax for two seconds before falling asleep. Not okay! On the nights I get home late, due to preparing, or making the crafts, or shopping for the "list" or setting up... Dinner has been on the table, ready to be served. Isn't he amazing? I do have to tell a funny little story... Okay he used to help ALL THE TIME with laundry, because that is the one thing I really hated doing, [although I hate being back up more] until he got fired for ruining TWO of my black dresses by washing them with towels [ on two different occassions] Not okay... So, Anyway... I come home last night from decorating for my Class get together & [dinner is cooked and ready & Laundry is done] He says.. " J, I'm pretty sure I ruined your panties, but don't get mad... I didn't know they would wrap around four other pieces of clothing, so I had to cut them. It was crazy, & I don't know how to stop them from doing that." I just BUSTED out laughing. I was tired, really tired, and hungry, and here he is cooking dinner, straighting up the house, turning laundry, and worried about my pair of panties! He's wonderful. Plus, PantiesVS a black dress... Nothing to get upset over. It was cute! :D Here I am worried that I'm not doing my job, and he's worried about cutting my panties.
This post is a whole lot of NOTHING, and probably boring... but I always feel better when I write things down or even talk about it. I've been apologizing to him, & leaving sweet notes around the house and sending him sweet, fun cards thanking him, but still.... My Mama always taught me. Don't do or give more than you have not given your home first. Meaning, I stay late working on projects to satisfy everyone else, and I have not satisfied my life at home first. Bad girl!
On the bright side, I'm SUPER excited about seeing OLD high school friends. I know it hasn't been that long, but we were a very close class. I still keep up with a LOT of the people I graduated with. Even the ones I didn't hang out with, I need make sure to stop in for a hello every now & then. Coming from a small town, we only had 117 graduate in our class, which happened to be the biggest class yet [at that time] for our school. We don't have everyone coming, not even half, but we have a variety and a decent amount. I'm super ready, and i'm SUPER ready for it to be over because my life will go back to normal. I don't like not being on top of everything. It drives me bonkers. I don't like having control of my house. That's never happened before... It bothers be really bad. && I really don't like me not putting him first, because he always has been and he hasn't been for the month of September... His birthday is coming up 10/10/10... Maybe I'll do something extra special for him! :D We will see!
Thanks for listening. If you aren't, I understand. It was kinda pointless! :D HAPPY HUMP DAY Friends!

OMG, i understand completely what you are saying. Hubby and I were just discussing/fighting (haha) about the same thing last night. lately I have let the house get completely out of hand and he is so nice about everything. I was so upset with myself that I was taking it out on him and he has done nothing but clean up after me. My hubby has been fired from laundry also, same reasons! Don't stress too much about it! Things will slow down and you will be back to being donna reed in no time :) hopefully i can get back there too! Thank goodness we have wonderful men in our lives!(oh and the panty thing, super funny) i hope you have a great rest of the week!
Your hunny sounds like a charm! I've been slacking with housework for awhile because of work/school and my bf picks up some of the slack, but I still try to help out. Do something extra special for his bday and spoil him rotten :)

Ok, I am rolling over here laughing so hard about the panty ordeal. TOO funnyyy! And, I definitely think you should do a nice surprise for his 10/10/10 birthday! That'll be neat and definitely something easily remembered! Don't worry about slacking on the house work! It's ok to get out of the "everyday" life style once and a while in order to take care of other biz. I think the transition of the seasons has everyone in somewhat of a slump and super lazy mood. Get some rest and party hardy this weekend with the old classmates :)

He sounds wonderful. I hope he reads this post.
I know exactly what you are talking about, seems like there are a bunch of other ladies that do too! My house is a disaster area right now and I keep putting everything off and off and off. I need to get my butt in gear and clean!
It's too funny that your hubby has been fired from doing laundry. My boyfriend didn't realize that you can't dry coats with fur around the hood in the dryer.. So I have a very funny looking coat now. Oh well, I still love him.
Had to laugh at your panty story though!
OMG!!! That is the FUNNIEST story EVER!! I seriously laughed out loud!!
